Today while talking to my sister in law messages just stopped showing up in the messages application but they still show up as a notification so I know they are coming, and any that i send do not show in the app either.
I rebooted the phone and still has the same issue.
I'm running a cyanogen mod oct 29th nightly from last week, i was thinking of installing a newer update but wanted to check if that would be the only option
slight update
I tried some alternate messaging apps and still the same issue with those as well
Bump,
I really need help
Umhh it IS a nightly and could simply be a bug. Check your spam/rejected list or settings in your messaging app and make sure you didn't enable a global rule.

Never had this issue. Only other thing I can think of is to force stop the messaging app and clear the cache. Although, you said you tried other messaging apps.. it's worth a shot. If not, maybe someone else can help. Sorry!! ;{

It seems whenever I try to send 3 messages in a row in the stock messaging app it freezes and lags a bunch. I also can't receive more than 3 messages at once either...anyone else experiencing lag issues? This also happens in every other app but messaging is the worst

How many messages do you have stored? If you're having problems in every app then it sounds like either something's corrupted in the system, or you have an app causing problems eating up memory or other resources.
Unless you have good reason to believe that the problems with sms are unrelated from your other issues, you should give more info on more apps, on what else happens, when it happens, what triggers it, what you've tried to do to fix so far, etc.
Also helps to know if your rooted, what rom/build your using, kernel, etc.

What do you mean 3 messages... type shorter texts? I have 15k stored and seems to be fine for me... I'm not sending texts like I'm seizuring tho.

I mean like typing and sending and typing and sending three different texts somewhat fast. Sorry if that doesnt make sense but the messaging app is just super laggy all the time and it's probably the 10,000 messages I have stored

Back em up and wipe em out is the first thing id try. You can always restore if need be.

I was using go SMS pro but I just uninstalled it since it won't let me send MMS without uploading to the cloud... the stock app will barely even open. FML.

So the update came out and know quite a few people talking about it. If you update Facebook and messenger you now get this option without having to use Facebook home. Anyone get it to work? If you go to settings and notifications there's suppose to be a check box for chat heads but I'm not getting one

When you bring up the person you are chatting with, long press on the conversation and then you will see the option to bring up "pop up chat head"
Forgot to mention chat heads only work on Facebook messenger.

I had to uncheck 'Hide Statusbar' in Apex for it to work correctly.

This does not work for me. I've tried long pressing everywhere. I'm assuming if I don't have the option to turn it on under notification settings that it won't work for me at all.
I'm running 2.4.2 I've restarted the app and phone several times and reinstalled too

Open messenger,, then when the window comes up on the top left hand side should say messages.make sure that your settings allow pop up heads.
You do this by going into settings on the actual messenger app, then click on notifications, , then check "chat heads"
Now go back to messages window and hold down a conversation that you already have going.
On the conversation window that comes up tick the pop up heads option.
There you go hope that helps

I do not have "chat heads" option under notifications where sound, vibe rate, etc. So there for I can't enable it because it is not there to enable.

I have the same problem as everyone else. I read somewhere that it has to do with the actual Facebook account.
Try to sign out of your account and then sign in to a friends account on your phone and test it out.
My long press selection options
Jayv81 you are right. It is related with the account. I key my gf sign into her account on my phone and the chat head option showed up. WTH! as soon as she log out, the option is gone.

I found a modded app that works. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2232307
I tried this one and it works just make sure and un install all current Facebook apps. Also I'm not a fan of the Facebook home and I uninstalled it after testing the linked method. And it still works.
All credit goes to theos0o
Long press options with modded apps
This does it. Finally! Thx

Slightly off-topic, but does anyone know how to un-stack the chat heads that pop up? I can see the multiple chat heads for each thread when I drag the circle, but they're all stacked and attached to each other.

I don't think you can unstack them.
Try Logging In To Facebook Application.It Worked For Me
If you're using CyanogenMod or any custom ROM....
Find your device full specifications on google and look for its original PPI pixel density or resolution.
download an app on playstore like 'screen resolution changer' and change it to its original resolution.
Hope it works
Got my one the day after release day from Verizon. I've been noticing a couple little bugs going on with the messaging app and want to see if anyone else is having the issues. Friend of mine has the phone to and he seems to be issue free.
The first issue is when hanging up a call, I often get a " unfortunately messages has stopped". No idea what's causing it but it's happening Pretty frequently.
The second one is hard to explain but I'll do my best. A few times while messaging multiple people individually, it some how puts the full message that I just sent right back into the text field. Almost like I never sent it but I did. Ends up saving the message as a draft so I have to erase it. I haven't figured out the exact steps to make this happen but if I do, I'll post it here.
Anyone else having these weird issues?

Not sure if this will help you, but I had imported my old messages into the new phone during setup using the HTC app (I forget what it's called). Messaging was messed up when I started using the new phone. I deleted all messages and cleared the messaging app cache. All perfect since then.

Is there any way with the Note 4 to turn on messaging preview? Right now it is coming up when I get a text message, but it just says New Message. Before with the Note 2, it would actually preview the message. Any help?
I figured it out. You can delete this please.
How'd you do it? I been trying to find it then gave up lol

In Messages go to Settings -> Notifications -> Then check Lockscreen under Preview Message
Oh wow thanks!don't know how I missed that... could've sworn I checked there... maybe I just thought it was a yes or no button and skipped it
Wow thanks!
Glad you got it figured out. If you want try downloading Textra. I'm sure once you use it you will never go back. It's pretty awesome and has a couple customizing options. I just loathe the stock messaging app and figured I'd share with you.
Well like the messages... my calls are also showing just "missed call" without contact info on the lock screen.. tried searching in settings but no luck.. its probably something really obvious I skipped or just looking in the wrong section lol
Settings》Applications》Messages》Notification (on) in there you can ad preview or not.

I've actually been noticing the same thing. I haven't been able to pinpoint why it happens, though. Sometimes my phone app will open on the first try, sometimes the app will say "Contacts has crashed."

yea it happen random, i cant figure it out.
My contacts will force stop as well but I think it's because of the phone app being linked and it's failing I could be wrong
guys do this remove google plus update, i did another factory reset and everything updated but after google plus update my contact app started crashing, so i remove the update and my contact app stop crashing so far, test this out and let me know..
Been getting the same thing: contacts frequently crashing. I've had some other apps crashing too (including the XDA app). Not sure what happened, but this has been fairly recent.
